ard other heirs at-laW, decisions Of the So

half of their client, in which she prays that

PROTESTED HIS ryxooENOE-
Patrick Mccarthy Hanged FOR Murder n
Fort Smith, Arkansas.


FoRE Smith, AK. April s-Patrick McCar-
thy was hanged here today for the murder Of
Thos. and John Mahoney In the Cherokes
nation on the 18th Of February 1886. The
evidence was purely cirCumstantial, there
being no eye Witnesses to the crime, and
Mccarthy died protesting his limo
cence. According TO the testimony
Mccarthy left Red Fork, Indian Territory,
February Is, in company with Tom and
John Mahony, and Joe SDruis, bound for
Springfield, Mo. The Mahony boys had
been working on the railroad and had some
money and two good teams. On the night
OF the 10th, Mccarthy and Sprule planned
the murder and robbery Of the boys, and
arLnlng themselves while their victims slept
murdered them IN cold blood. Sprule had
q gun and Mccarthy 6 pistol. The lat
ter hred, killing Tom AahOney
instantly but Spruls's gun snapped, and
AK. HE bodies were robbed and hauled
some distance and then thrown IN q ditch
near Barksr's coal banks, close to the Kan
sAs line, whore they we're subsequently
found and identified. Dividing the spoils
the murd6Fers separated and SpFule is still
at large, but Mccarthy was arrested one
year ago to-day and brought here for trial
he was convicted Ssptembr 30 and EeDtsnCsd
With 1ve others, to hang January "A, but the
president respItsd himfuntiI April 9Th. This
Is the theory OF the prosecution substantial
ted by the fact OF McCarthy's having ia his
possession property of the murdered men,
but he protested his innocence and with a
cruciio in his hands on the galloWl
vowed he knew nothing Of the murder.
The general impression here is that he
was innocent and that in his case
circumstances lied. He Was the uervisst
man Of the sixty-six persons that have been
hanged here within the last twelve years for
murder committed in tho Indian territory
and neither feared nor dreaded death. He
was g devout Catholic and died In that
faith. Father Smythe remained With him
on the gallOws. Before the black
cap was adjusted he stated that
Mccarthy had a few words to say. No
Carthy addressed the crowd briefly, main
tanning his innocence and expressing his
willingness to die. He has a wife IN Dixon,
No, and relatives we'll connected in New
York City. The drop fell at 2:2O and death
was almost instantaneous. Mccarthy
death leaves twenty-fOur prisoners in the
United States jail charged with committing
murder IN the Indian Territory.

Uncle Sam Going to Look After the Inter
ests Of the south American Republics.
WASHINGTON, D. O., April 9.-Although no
official combination has been received At the
department of state of the report that Great
Britain has threatened to seize Tortugas
Island, yet IL ia learned that the American
consul at Hagti has kept the department
fully informed as to the nature of the Brit
ish claims and ali proceedings taken by that
government against Hayti during the
past three or four years. Now that the mat
ter is reported to have assumed so serious a
nature the government, with a view 20
being prepared for any emergency, is begiu-
ming TO canvass its resources IN case 1t should
bee me necessary to again assert the inteu-
ton Of this country TO maintain the mon
roe Doctrine, - to the extent of protecting
the small republics OF the American CONT
nent against the encrOachments of
European powers. The result of the
inquiries into the navel Feaoarces
or the United States Is not
encouraging so far. Several wooden vessels
forming the training squadron are now on
their way HorthFard from the West Indies,
and at present there is No vessel bearing the
American flag in Haytiau waters. the
'YsntIC" is at Key West and the ''Gslena"
at AspiuWall, and 1t is possible that one
o. both OF these vessels may be ordered 70
the vicinity Of Hayti to represent the United
States government In the event that It may
become necessary to enter a formal protest
against European enCroachmsnt in the West
Indies.

THE ENTERING WEDGE.

The Action Taken by the Commission
Likely to Defeat the Purpose OF the Act.
PHILADELPHIA, April THE opinion
among railroad officials in this city is that
the action Of the interstate commission on
the long and short haul question concerning
southern railroads Will crush the entire
measure. They argue that this is the most
vital fsature Of the entire act, and thst the
stand taken by the commission, even
though 1t be OF a temporary nature.
is the entering wedge that will split
the whole log. t'Ihsre is not a railuOad
OF any consequence in the entire country, 81
said ons prominent railroad officer to-day,
''that will not make some claim such as that
contended for by the southern lines, and the
justics of the claim cannot fail to be recOg-
nized. Here, in almost the first act Of the
commission, they array against them every
railroad that has directly or remotely water
route competitions and further than this,
they have taken such a position as viii uu-
settle the commercial affairs Of the country
for three months or more"

art school in Chicago, where she met 81. a.
Davidson, who profssssd himself to be
wealthy cattleman from Texas. Davidson

money and entered into a scheme with two
associates, L. Q. Watson and N. j. Bell, to gain
her ODhdeuce and deEraud her Of 1t. Watson
Was introduced TO Miss Snavely, and in less
than three days she consented TO marry
him. The girls folks at Sterling heard Of
is, and to prevent the match telegsaphed her
very i'll. She returned to Sterling, accom-
pGniSd by Watson. On learning she had

ried to Watson, and went with him to Chi
cagO. He got ell the money from her he
could, and when she refused TO give him any
more left for the east. Davidson then went

and induced her to come to Omaha with
him where he said they would be married.
Nothing has been heard Of Davidson, Mrs.
Watson, or Bell, who went vest with them
On March 80. Fitzgerald and WOlfberger to-
day received a dispatch from the girls
mother urging them to find her at any cost.

Railroads at War.

CHICAGO, Ill, April 6.-The failure to
agree on basis for division Of rates to and
from the Missouri river points on the Mis-
souri, river business and points beyond, has
caused complete rupture between the lines
east from Chicago and those west from this
city. The through billing of freight be
tween points in the east and Missouri river
points via Chicago has been stopped.
Eastern roads charge local rates to Chicago
and local rates are added from Chicago to
western points, which, of course, makes the
rates via Chicago materially higher than
via st. Louis. Besides, all freight from the
east has to be rebilled at Chicago, which i
an additional embarrassment. The roads
running west from Chicago are determined,
it is said, to resist the demands Of the
eastern lines with all the means at their
command.
